2023 was a year that we will remember with special affection. Not only did we have a large number of high-quality video games, such as The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, Baldur’s Gate 3, Alan Wake 2, or Sea of Stars (among many others), but it was also the year when Konami announced Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater.
In this way, and with just a few months apart, Konami confirmed to us that they are developing two of the most anticipated remakes of recent years: Metal Gear Solid 3 and also Silent Hill 2, announced in October 2022, thus ending the pleas of the fans, who had been asking for a remake of both games for years.
Of course, announcing the titles didn’t mean that we were going to taste them soon. As is often the case in the triple A industry, many years can pass between a game being announced and its final release (just ask Bethesda and the upcoming The Elder Scrolls VI). And, to make matters worse, none of them had a release date, not even an estimate.
But that uncertainty seems to have evaporated this week, as a promotional video from PlayStation showing the big releases coming to PlayStation 5 in 2024 features both games, to everyone’s surprise.
While most of the video games that are coming out already had established release dates (the case of Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth and The Last of Us: Part 2 Remastered, for example), the video also shows, as if by chance, both Silent Hill 2 Remake and Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater, which many were expecting at least by 2025.
At the moment, Konami has not confirmed any release date, but being an official PlayStation video, it would be strange if it were not the official release window for both games.
However, the fact that the fork is official does not mean that we will finally see both games this year; Microsoft made a similar video over a year ago where, among other titles, they showed Hollow Knight: Silksong, stating that the game would arrive on their platforms before mid-2023. Have you played it? Because I haven’t.
